The city has been working with Estrella Benavides — who did not show up to speak on her appeal — since August, when neighbors first complained about the messages painted across the roof, garage door and windows of her 1864 Cottage Grove Ave. home.

The Lago Street duplex, Beresford Avenue house in Belmont and two cars she owns had similar messages on them as well.

While some of the signs are hard to make sense of, they share a general theme of government conspiracy, apocalyptic warnings and physical, mental and sexual abuses.

The unanimous denial of her appeal of the Jan. 17 Community Improvement Decision means that she has until March 20 to remove the signs — which are painted on her roof, garage door, windows and front lawn at Cottage Grove Avenue — or face daily fines of $50 and a one-time $1,829 administrative fee.
